BoyFriendTV Downloader

Key a video link or its number. Pick a quality. The file is written on your own device, straight from the CDN — nothing is stored here and nothing is asked of you.

BoyFriendTV sells downloading. This does the same thing for free.

Works with boyfriendtv.com, boyfriend.tv, boyfriendtv.org, bftv.tv and a bare video number.

How it works

P200
  1. You key an address

    A full BoyFriendTV URL or just the number out of it. Mirrors work too.

  2. This server reads one page

    It fetches the video page and the stream index — about 330 KB — and reads back the quality ladder the video actually has.

  3. Your browser fetches the video

    Not this server. BoyFriendTV's CDN allows direct browser access, so the segments travel from the CDN to you and never pass through here.

  4. Your browser writes the MP4

    The segments arrive as MPEG-TS and are joined into a single MP4 locally. That is the part that takes minutes on a large file, and it is why this costs nothing to run.

Paste, press GET, pick a quality. The ladder is read from the video itself, so you only ever see the qualities it really has.

One block per segment, not a guessed percentage. When the last block lights, the MP4 is on your device.
What a save looks like SEG 057/082

One block per segment, filling as each one lands. This is a real five-and-a-half minute video at 720p: 82 segments, 83 MB, a little over four seconds of video each.

This server reads two small pages. The video itself never touches it — that is why there is no queue and no cap.

Because the video never touches this server, there is no bandwidth bill to pass on, no queue, and no throttling. It is also why the progress bar counts real segments instead of guessing a percentage.

Questions

P300

Is it free, and is there a catch?

Free, with no account and no upload limit. There is a real cost, though: the download runs in your browser tab and a 4K file can take several minutes. That is the trade for not paying for a membership.

Do I need an account or an app?

No. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for, nothing to grant permission to. It works in the browser you are already using.

Why does it take so long?

The file is fetched in four-second segments and joined together on your device. A five-minute video at 720p is around 80 segments; the same video in 4K is around 400 MB. Your connection is the limit, not this site.
